Audit risk, procedures and evidence
Part of the Big Four & Professional Services learning and recruiting path. Read the explanation and example, attempt the task, then open the self-check.
Know what to learn for your role.
From foundations to a work sample, with sources, tasks and self-checks.
Understand
Design procedures from misstatement risks, then document evidence and limitations. Inquiry, observation, inspection, confirmation and recalculation address different questions.
Worked example
Receivables may exist but be uncollectible. Confirmation can address balances; subsequent collections and customer conditions inform recoverability.
Examples and numbers are educational, not employer questions, live market data or hiring criteria.
Practise and keep your output
Prepare a receivables working paper: risk, assertion, procedure, result, conclusion and unresolved items.
Keep inputs and sources, assumptions, steps, results and uncertainties in your own document. Attempt independently before checking below.
After attempting: answer and self-check
Keep conclusions within the evidence and state differences needing follow-up. This introduction does not replace applicable standards.
